I am pleased the Senate acted today to confirm Governor Mike
Leavitt as my new Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency.
Governor Leavitt is an exceptional leader who shares my commitment to
reaching out across partisan lines to get things done. I know he will
work closely with me to build upon my Administration's initiatives to
make our air and water cleaner, protect the land, and use technology to
improve our environment while our economy grows and creates jobs. I
thank Chairman Inhofe and Senator Reid for their leadership in ensuring
Governor Leavitt's confirmation.
